We were entertaining a friend from Australia on vacation last week, and visited the Gamble House again. This is the first time we have arrived fairly early in the morning, and so I was able to catch the front of the house still in sunlight.

There are numerous houses in the immediate neighborhood also designed by Greene & Greene, and a short walk will yield a nice retrospective tour:
 |
| Josephine van Rossem House, 1906 |
 |
| Garden wall and gate detail, van Rossem House. |
 |
| Charles S. Greene House, 1902 |
 |
| Garage door detail, Charles S. Greene House. |
 |
| Theodore Irwin, Jr. House, 1906-07 |
 |
| Louise Bentz House, 1905-06 |
|
 |
| Porte-cochere detail, Mary E. Cole House, 1906-07 |
 |
| Some are a bit difficult to photograph: Frank W. Hawks House, 1906 |
Most people who travel to visit us will, at some time in their stay, be dragged along on this little tour.
